Classic Chicken Cacciatore

This was so yummy. It seemed exactly like what you'd eat if you dropped in to visit your Italian grandmother. Sigh, I wish I had an Italian grandmother next door, who would cook for me each and every night. 

Since I don't, here's my version. And it's...you guessed it...DE-licious. Enjoy.

1 lb. chicken, cooked & shredded

1/2 tsp. dried oregano

1/2 tsp. dried basil

1 T. fresh Italian parsley, chopped
